<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2597002, member: 10461&quot;]I bought this book, and would give it higher marks than you did, since I found it pretty comprehensive for a &quot;beginner&#039;s&quot; guide, and neither dumbed-down nor intimidatingly scholarly. In my opinion, it struck a good balance and made no pretension of being &quot;complete&quot; in any way.&nbsp; Personally, I thought it was a good value for the money, though I do not remember spending $50 on it.&nbsp; I think I got it in the $40-something range.&nbsp; (And that with a leftover Amazon gift card I had to burn, so all the better.)</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Lordmarcovan&#039;s grade:</b> B to B+.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is very likely that I fall closer to the intended &quot;beginner&quot; demographic than [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER] does, which may account for the difference in our opinions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
